Class Extension

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.extension.Extension

public final class Extension
extends java.lang.Object

Utility class that represents either an available "Optional Package" (formerly known as "Standard Extension") as described in the manifest of a JAR file, or the requirement for such an optional package.

For more information about optional packages, see the document Optional Package Versioning in the documentation bundle for your Java2 Standard Edition package, in file `guide/extensions/versioning.html`.
